TLD intro 2 new PrimaLoft insulated jackets for AW 23

TLD has introduced 2 new insulated jackets to its winter apparel line, with both the Mathis and Crestline featuring PrimaLoft Gold insulation fabric.

Whilst both jackets are designed as warm layers, design differences make Mathis and Crestline very different options, serving differing ride needs.

Here, a helmet compatible hood, tightened by reflective pull tabs, adds extra warmth when pausing to review trail options, or waiting for uplift.

In comparison, Crestline is all about insulation, filled with PrimaLoft Gold, providing a wrap around warmth for the coldest of ride situations (and winter evening walks to the pub).

Combining these characteristic with the outer shell material having a plant-based, Teflon EcoElite water resistant finish, and you’ve jackets that work in damp, cold, UK winter weather conditions.

By adding the new Mathis and Crestline Jackets – to sit alongside the current Descent, a waterproof and breathable jacket featuring taped seems and a 10K HH rating, and Shuttle, a jacket designed for mixed conditions, where pack size is ‘just in case’ optimized, and materials selected for wind and water resistance, allied with high breathability – the TLD team highlights it now offers riders the most comprehensive range of winter jackets in its history, with individual items functioning a stand alone options, as well as presenting a layering system that covers any eventuality.
